My previous phone before my Incredible was an LG Dare. And talking to people I know who have the Incredible and reading posts on here it seems like a lot of people previously had the Dare. I was just wondering am I imagining things or is there some kind of trend between these two phones?

Yes I did. The trend is that they are both the highest quality phones of their time that customers waited patiently to be released and were in no way disappointed.

I had one too and ^this^ is pretty much true.

I upgrade every two years and get the "best" phone that there is at the time. Back at the time I got my Dare, the only real smartphone that Verizon had was the Blackberries, which I don't care for. But I loved the Dare so I went with that. Up until now, I would say it's the best phone I ever had.

I also came from the dare, matter of fact the thing still works perfect. Never had a problem with it. I use to get 3- 5 days ! before plugging into a charger.
I fired it up the other day and OH BOY, it made me realize in a hurry just how GOOD the DInc really is and how fast technology is moving. WOWzer !

I am a proud owner of the Dare also. It did what I wanted it to do at that time. The features that came with it for the camera was amazing and come to think of it...it's better than the DINC's features; just that it doesn't have better picture quality and I also went 3-5 days without charging the battery (I wish I could do that with the DINC). The Dare was Verizon's #1 phone at that time and everybody knew why. I don't care for blackberry hence when the storm 1&2 came out they didn't cross my mind to get them and as you can see both came and gone and now forgotten.
I agree with all of you regarding the technology now from two years ago. Looking at the Dare now it seem like it was a prototype of future phones being the guinea pig of what a phone is capable of doing besides being a phone even though the iphone was out months before.

Not a dare but a very little known phone-- the lg versa. It was like a step up from the dare and had an attachable keyboard and three home screens. It was a pretty sweet phone but Verizon didn't do much to promote it and the screen size seemed really really small after I got my ipod touch.

I really did like the phone though, it had the ability to have shortcuts to your main contacts on the one home screen and it would have their picture in a box. When you clicked on the picture, it would give you four options to contact that person.

It was so close to being a smartphone that obviously my next choice was to go 100 percent into the smartphone world.
